She moved to Canada in 2011 to join Ontario Tech University and The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) in Toronto as a postdoctoral fellow. She received a BS in Industrial Automation from Universidade de Caxias do Sul, Brazil, in 2005 MSc in Automation, Instrumentation and Control in 2007 and PhD (European Doctorate) in Biomedical Engineering in 2011 from Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, Portugal where she developed the first Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system for total intravenous anesthesia using Target Controlled Infusion in the neurosurgery environment. Nadja Bressan is an Assistant Professor at Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering, University of Prince Edward Island (UPEI), Charlottetown, Canada. ![]() Provides examples of veterinary applications with successful outcomes, incorporating step-by-step directions for engineersÄr. Illustrates veterinary challenges using an engineering-design approach Serves as a learning resource for the training and education of veterinary students, veterinarians and engineersÄemonstrates through experiments and case studies the merging point between engineering and veterinary medicineÄiscusses concepts and issues associated with engineering and veterinary medicine This book brings a novel field of engineering to train future veterinarians and engineers on design and application of technology to veterinary medicine. The authors address the challenges engineers face in designing healthcare equipment for animals and how the field of veterinary engineering contributes to traditional veterinary medicine. We examine improvements to animal care and enhancement of animal welfare while creating a more sustainable veterinary healthcare ecosystem. A vast opportunity exists for developing novel technologies that target reductions to the number of invasive procedures patients are subjected to. Do cephalopods change color when under distress? Is the reptilian heart analogous to a diaphragm positive displacement pump? Are digital twins the answer for animal experimentation? This book explores the new field of veterinary engineering science and discusses how to better measure vital signs in exotic and companion animals. ![]()
